I was wondering how much other chyoo authors plan the soryline when creating a new story. Do you intend to just start it off as 5 threads deep and then just let others continue it? Or do you have a long storyline planned and then just let others join in where they want?
Or something completely different?
I have personally planned a lot ahead in my story. I have branching storylines and numerous scenes planned. I even started out with outlining the various scenes I'd want and where to put them. I realized that it wasn't an easy task though, as I have so many ideas in my head, and I've found that I can't plan my story in all details so soon in the writing. I've found that I'm splitting scenes and adding some in my head for future use, and that I'll have to put in extra threads to make it fit together as a whole and from thread to thread by the follow-up questions.
